GH casts Hudson West as new Jake

General Hospital has chosen young actor Hudson West to take over the role of Liz and Jason's son, Jake Spencer.

In March, a Twitter posting revealed that General Hospital would soon be recasting the role of Jake Spencer. Now, a little more than a month later, the ABC soap has revealed that Hudson West will be taking over the role.

The actor, who is replacing former portrayer James Nigbor, already has quite an impressive résumé for his young age. In addition to recently being featured as Marcia Clark's son, Travis, on the FX series American Crime Story: The People V. OJ Simpson, he's appeared on Grace and Frankie, Modern Family, and Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn, as well as in the film Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2.

Watch for the youngster's debut as Liz (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason's (Billy Miller) son on Monday, April 25. And for a sneak peek at his acting skills, check out his commercial reel below.
